Guest guest Posted January 17, 2012 Report Share Posted January 17, 2012 Hello to Everyone. Can I have some views please on these test results. TSH 2.33 Free T4 19.8.Cortisol 360, 25(OH) Vit D 112, Ca Cor2.39 Ca 2.4 I have been suffering many years I have added my last post as I only received one reply [thank you Joy for that] and not entirely sure I am using this site correctly. These results have been given although I continue to suffer from the problems below. I am on 100mcg of Thyroxine daily and my scan has revealed my Thyroid has shriveled up. The scan report states Both lobes of the Thyroid gland appear Hypoechoic and small [atrophic] \\\the isthmus could not be visualised. No retrosternal extension no significant focal thyroid abnormality. No enlarged cervical lymph nodes noted. Endo refused point blank to even consider Cytomel /Armour saying all is ok. Why do I feel so ill? My GP has agreed to send me to a different hospital for a second opinion and has agreed to refer me privately to Dr S if all else fails. If anyone can advise me I would be really grateful. OLD POST Hello to everyone. I am new to the group and after bombarding poor Sheila with my questions have now found how to share my problem. I have been hypothyroid for 30 years but never free of the symptoms. 4 years ago things were getting worse and I have gained 5 stone in weight. I have been diagnoised with high BP, atrial tachycardia and menopause. I am convinced all my symptoms are associated with my thyroid problem. I have never been properly controlled and sice finding out about armour have attempted to get access to it via the nhs. The endocrinologist was horrified that I wanted it and told me my TSH was witnin the normal range and advised me to find another consultant that might be more sympathetic to my request. She was very rude and rubbished everything I tried to tell her. I have had cortisol, b12 and ESR but no results as yet. A scan last week has revealed the thyroid has shriveled up to practically nothing. Can anyone tell me what this means please. I feel so ill and can't get the help I think I need. I don't know what the thyroid fuction test readings were but will ask when I see my GP. I am 54 and female. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
